Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Actually in current python authentification is managed in api configuration.
But when you instantiate a new configuration, a new thread poll is create with it, so each time you need to change your authentification key, you will create a thread poll which will pull down the performance of the application.
We could have a global configuration and change the authentification but it will not be thread safe.
Describe the solution you'd like
The solution was already developed in python-legacy but it has not be migrated.
As designed in this PR #6569
Overwrite the authentification in the request

Research direction
Start by reviewing PR #6569 and comparing the existing python-legacy implementation with the new Python codegen authentication and configuration paths. Trace how request authentication is currently obtained and how configuration creates its thread pool. Done means authentication can be overridden per request without repeatedly creating configuration thread pools, with coverage for the new behavior.
